Default O2 XDA Orbit 6.1 Windows Upgrade

Does anyone know if the XDA Orbit (Not Orbit 2) can handle windows 6.1 and if so do you know where I can get a O2 version please.

wow

where to start

all of the roms on the artemis part of this site should work with the orbit, but you'll need to USPL first.

None of them are o2 branded because there isnt an official o2 rom, but you can add the various settings you'll need manually afterwards. An o2 rom would (if it was released) effectively be the same as one of these roms but with a different wallpaper etc.

Just upgraded my o2 orbit using black & blue 5 off this site and after USPL-ing it it went fine.

use the search on this site for any problems you've got, and once you find a rom you like the look of read through the ENTIRE thread to see what (if any) problems other people have had with it and what (if any) solutions were found

only install a rom suitable for the ARTEMIS though (you're on the right page)

WARNING! USPL should be used prior to using ANY cooked ROM, otherwise, you will brick your device, most probably..

here is the USPL which i have used, for the past 1 1/2 years, and this works fine with HTC P3300 & O2 Orbit (NOT ORBIT 2).. i have tested on more than 10 devices of each type and i confirm this..

This is the same USPL i downloaded from this forum, but i couldnt find the links from this forum, maybe im blind :P.. but i already have the files, so i have uploaded it to rapidshare.. here is the link...

http://rapidshare.com/files/201470586/ArtemisUSPL.rar

just EXTRACT, and then connect your Orbit OR P3300 to your windows computer, and make sure ActiveSync is connected and GREEN..

RUN start_uspl.exe, and things should go fine with the default procedure.. no complex settings, just NEXT NEXT type installation..

after USPL has been properly installed, you can try downloading any cooked ROM for Artemis from this forum, and flash it to your Artemis (P3300 or O2 Orbit).. i have faith that nothing will go wrong.. as even i try almost every ROM whether its Vietnamese or Italian.. just for testing purposes..

have you tried searching the forum yet?

once you've USPL'd connect your phone again (if not already connected) and run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe

follow the instructions

upgrading your rom will lose your data (contacts/ msgs and emails aswell as installed 3rd party software) from your phone so make sure you've got everything you need and you've recently sync'd with your computer first
